Summary
The authors report two osteoid osteon as of the spine treated by percutaneous extraction under computed tomography (CT) guidance. CT helps to localize exactly and extract only the nidus with no further damage to the bone. This technique is very promising, with a limited approach and minimal bone resection allowing a short hospital stay and prompt functional recovery.
